This detailed map of Greece, the islands of the Aegean Sea, and the adjacent coastline of Turkey illustrates the imaginary travels of Anacharsis the Younger in Greece. Crete is shown at the bottom of the map. The map is based on the cartography of D'Anville, whose work Bocage cataloged in the Bibliotheque Nationale. This map was published in Jean Jacques Barthelemy's Recueil de Cartes Geographiques Plans, Vues et Medailles de l'Ancienne Grece, Relatifs au Voyage du Jeune Anacharsis.
